Hello,
Another possibility might be to open a persistent http connection so the update would
be in realtime instead of intervals of x seconds and with a cronjob it might as well
be periodically *g*
search for fsockopen() or 'persistant http conection'
I can confirm Yamins answer also as a much easier way, as long as you are not trying
to make a _good_ phpchat.

P.S. This is my first post in this mailinglist :)
